Learn How Iodex UltraGel+ Can Help You Relieve Pain
Don’t let aches and pains stop you from enjoying life to the fullest. Find out how Iodex UltraGel+ targets a frequent cause of pain and inflammation, to get you moving freely again. It is a 2% diclofenac formulation2 that relieves pain, reduces inflammation and speeds your body’s natural healing process. What’s more? Thanks to its special Emulgel formulation which not only helps in easy application at the site of pain but also increases the absorption of the active ingredient through the skin, tissues and muscles. Iodex UltraGel+’s formulation allows it to permeate the skin 3 times deeper2 thus treating pain at its root and providing relief. That’s all clinically proven!
Iodex UltraGel+ is a medicated treatment containing a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, or NSAID4,5, known as diclofenac diethylamine in the form of an emulsion gel. The active ingredient (diclofenac) penetrates the skin to provide relief for pain, inflammation and swelling6.
Unlike other products in the market which contain ingredients that stimulate nerves in the skin to provide a sensation of heating or cooling, Iodex UltraGel+ has a 2% formulation of diclofenac which penetrates deep into the skin in order to relieve pain and reduce inflammation where you need it.
Are you ready for the best part? Iodex UltraGel+ is non-greasy and has a pleasant odour. This way, you can relieve your pain without much hassle. No one needs to see, or smell, how you are managing your pain, letting you be in the moment with whatever activity it is you love doing.

What is Emulgel anyway?
Emulgel is a technology developed for Iodex UltraGel+. It is an emulsion of a gel and cream that provides a cooling and soothing effect when applied to the skin.
Iodex UltraGel+ uses the same formulation as its global counterparts like Voltaren and Voltarol. It is available in 15g, 30g and 50g tubes.
We believe that pain relief should be simple and easy to use. That’s why using Iodex UltraGel+ couldn’t be easier.
- Take the tube and open the cap.
- Squeeze out the amount of gel you need. The amount of gel needed will vary depending upon the size of the painful or swollen area. An amount ranging in size from a cherry to a walnut (2g-4g) will usually be sufficient.
- Gently rub the gel into your skin where you have pain or swelling.
- Apply Iodex UltraGel+ twice daily, morning and evening.
- Wash your hands thoroughly after use.
- Experience pain relief and get back to doing the things you love.
Consult your doctor if pain and swelling do not improve within 7 days. The gel is not recommended for use in children under 12 years of age. Always read the label.
